A cocktail is a mixed alcoholic drink typically made with a distilled spirit as its base, combined with other ingredients. Common base spirits include gin, rum, vodka, whiskey, and tequila. Liqueurs, wine, or beer may also be used as a base or added component.
Cocktails often incorporate various additional elements such as fruit juices, sweeteners (e.g., honey), dairy products (milk or cream), spices, and other flavorings. The composition of cocktails can vary significantly between bartenders and regions, resulting in drinks with the same name potentially tasting quite different.
